An evening of fabulous entertainment is all but guaranteed. John Moore John Moore was a member of The Jesus and Mary Chain, a founder of Black Box Recorder, and in 1999, Britain’s first importer of Absinthe. The NME wrote of him ‘John Moore appears to be on a lifelong mission to corrupt the nation’s youth’. He has been a Guardian columnist, blogger, Sports Editor for The Idler, Guardian Motoring Correspondent, and, most recently, its Spider Expert. His short stories have appeared in Vice Magazine and The Erotic Review, and his poetry has been published in the magazine Le Gun. He has written a stage musical about The Kray Twins - The Blind Beggar’s Opera – and he is currently working on one about the legendary Colony Room. Moore has appeared on Top of The Pops as part of The Jesus and Mary Chain and Black Box Recorder. He has been grilled by Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight about Absinthe and on University Challenge as part of The Idler team who beat The Financial Times. “A bruised eremitic, Withnalian Rattlesnake on downers. Makes Lou Reed sound like a bricklayer.” Andrew Male, Mojo. Pete Astor Prolific and erudite multi-instrumentalist, ex of The Loft, The Weather Prophets, and numerous other esteemed projects, Pete Astor offers first-rate support with “an abundance of lushly arranged, timeless chamber-rock, brimming with wry lyrical insight and haunting melodic hooks.” His sixth solo album, the literate and melodic Songbox, captured the mood of British folk music in the presence of 60s-influenced pop and was one of Astor’s strongest albums to date. |
